Game Of Thrones: Stars React To The Red Wedding (Updated)

Some knew it was coming, others didn’t, but either way, finally seeing the much-anticipated Red Wedding scene in HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” caught the attention of fans and celebrities alike.

Powerful performances from Richard Madden, who played King Robb Stark, Oona Chaplin, who starred as his wife Talisa, and especially from Michelle Fairley, the grieving widow and mother, Catelyn Stark, left television watchers more than misty eyed.

Lena Headey, who plays Cersei Lannister (and is a mighty acting force of her own on the show), Tweeted on Monday morning that the grief Michelle put into the scene was palpable.

“The Twilight Saga’s” Rachelle Lefevre Tweeted, “I’m so traumatized by #GameofThrones tonight I can’t move from the couch. Just sitting here slack-jawed like a muppet. #HBO.”

“Suits” actor Patrick J. Adams (who Access spotted at the show’s premiere back in late March) Tweeted, “Thanks Game of Thrones for guaranteeing a few solid years of therapy. #sendingHBOmymedicalbills.”

“Spartacus” actor Liam McIntyre, whose own franchise wrapped up with a series of brutal death scenes earlier this year wrote, “Wow. Really @GameOfThrones ? I don’t know if I actually want to watch you anymore after that. I’m actually kind of annoyed. Boo.”
